Art to me is about developing your own style of communication. And technology is about communication. So to integrate the two just seems logical.

We're going to try to manufacture a big-scale piece called a Memory Wall. When you walk past the Memory Wall (constructed of hundreds of liquid pixels), basically you'll trigger a wave that will travel the length of the pixel. So, when people walk past it, they're triggering pixels sending the wave from the front to the back. It's kind of like an interactive architecture piece.

I grew up with video games and animation.

I've always tried to be involved with new technology and how it is involved in communication.

A rival editor in Philadelphia said that the spreading railroad network carried "New York everywhere" in terms of the city's predominant influence.

I have seen that technology has contributed to improved communication, that it's contributed to better health care, that it's contributed to better food supplies, that it has contributed to all the basic human needs.
